    Description

      This task is to provide a concrete implementation of the interfaces defined in KIP-255 to allow Kafka to connect to an OAuth / OIDC identity provider for authentication and token retrieval. While KIP-255 provides an unsecured JWT example for development, this will fill in the gap and provide a production-grade implementation.

      The OAuth/OIDC work will allow out-of-the-box configuration by any Apache Kafka users to connect to an external identity provider service (e.g. Okta, Auth0, Azure, etc.). The code will implement the standard OAuth clientcredentials grant type.

      The proposed change is largely composed of a pair of AuthenticateCallbackHandler implementations: one to login on the client and one to validate on the broker.

      See KIP-768: Extend SASL/OAUTHBEARER with Support for OIDC for more detail.
